Derby County manager Frank Lampard has sent his best wishes to Glenn Hoddle, who is recovering from a heart attack.

Hoddle collapsed at the BT Sport studios on Saturday morning shortly after appearing on a show hosted by former Rams skipper Robbie Savage.

The 61-year-old former England and Tottenham Hotspur star remains in a serious condition in hospital but is responding well to treatment, his family have said.

"It was a huge shock," said Lampard. "I heard after our game at Middlesbrough and that put into perspective my disappointment about not winning.

"I grew up idolising Glenn Hoddle as a player. I was fortunate enough to work with him in the media a lot last year and his knowledge of the game and willingness to help and speak to you, and give you words of advice, was something that took me back.

"I've loved Glenn Hoddle as a player and as a man. Fingers crossed after the recent news that he is hopefully getting a bit better."

Simon Daniels, a member of the production crew and a special constable, gave Hoddle immediate medical attention.

"The reports of the man that helped him, wow, talk about heroes," said Lampard.

"I'm sure there's a bit of a road to recovery for Glenn - but let's hope he is fine."

Derby midfielder Tom Huddlestone played for Spurs and worked under Hoddle when he was on loan at Wolverhampton Wanderers earlier in his career.

"Our thoughts and prayers go out to him and his family," he said.

As a ball-playing midfielder, Huddlestone has been compared to Hoddle on occasion.

"Yes, a few times, which was very flattering when I first went to Tottenham," he added.

"In particular, Glenn and his family would like to publicly thank the BT Sport staff that treated him immediately on set following his collapse.

"Glenn is now in the care of the professional NHS medical services, who have also been exemplary in helping him and the family during the last 24 hours.

"Doctors have advised the most important thing for Glenn is time to rest. Therefore, his family have reiterated the request for their privacy to be respected during this period."

In statements released to the Press Association, England manager Gareth Southgate and Football Association chairman Greg Clarke both sent their best wishes.

Southgate, who played under Hoddle for England, said: "My thoughts and prayers are with Glenn Hoddle and those closest to him following today's distressing news. Everybody across the game is right behind one of English football's greats and we are willing him to pull through."

Clarke added: "All of us at Wembley and St George's Park are thinking of Glenn and hoping for positive news. Our thoughts are also with his family and friends at what will be an extremely difficult time for everyone who knows him."

Former England team-mate Gary Lineker wished Hoddle well, writing on Twitter: "Hugely worrying news that Glenn Hoddle collapsed at the BT studios earlier. Thoughts are with him and his family. Come on Glenn."

The Football Association, via the England team account, wrote: "Worrying news. Get well soon, Glenn Hoddle, we're all behind you."

Tottenham and Chelsea also sent their best wishes to their former player and manager, as did England captain Harry Kane who said his thoughts were with Hoddle.

Graeme Souness referred to Hoddle as a "class act" when speaking on Sky Sports.
